Marian Kale
2025-2026 School Year
Welcome to Helena Middle School! My name is Marian Kale and I teach 6th, 7th, and 8th grade orchestra at HMS, as well as one period of 6th grade choir. I grew up in Billings and graduated from the University of Montana in Missoula, where I taught music before moving to Helena. Outside of teaching, I enjoy spending time with family, reading, and going to spin cycle classes.
To the left, under “links for parents and students,” you can find our concert schedule, a calendar of events, and links to daily instructional plans and weekly agendas. Feel free to contact me via email or phone at any time.
Choir Students: For more information, please visit Ms. Kecskés’ staff page here.
